Goals, Addictions and Aspirations

The more I run, the more I want to run. I feel better, not only physically but emotionally too. I'm a happy momma when I get my endorphin kick;) I have "races" planned for the remainder of this year, several 5k's, nothing long. One pretty scary one for me, a mudrun that makes me nervous with lots of obstacles. I'm rambling, last night during a short 3 miles I came to the realization that I WANT to do a full Marathon, for me, just to do it. I don't want to be fast, I just want to finish. It makes sense to me to get a couple more 1/2 Marathons under my belt, since I've only done one. So my grand plan is to do next years Indianapolis Mini Marathon (2nd time), the half here in good ole Muncie, a sprint triathlon and then start training for the BIG one. I think I can do it and I'm excited!!! Can't wait to start some crazy training:).
Run on:)

About my Journey

I'm a mom of 2 school aged kids who just wants to get in shape and stay there! In January of 2012 I decided (with the help of my sisters) that I (and they) would pick up running and have loved it ever since! :) Running gives me peace, tranquility, strength and stamina. It helps me leave the stresses of the work day where they belong and helps keep me grounded at home. I ran my first 1/2 marathon in May of this year just 4.5 months after taking up running and well, although I didn't make MY goal, I finished!!! New goal: keep at it, stay focused and push on!!
